Impedance
Trace impedance (Diff pair) 100 Ω
±10%. Target is 100Ω. 95Ω for the
breakout and main route is an
implementation option.

The max length is derived based on
this characteristic. See Note 1.

Max GND transition via distance 1x Diff pair via pitch
For signals switching reference
layers, add one or two ground
stitching vias. It is recommended they
be symmetrical to signal vias.
Via
Topology Y-pattern is recommended
keep symmetry
Xtalk suppression is the best by Y-
pattern. Also, it can reduce the limit
of pair-pair distance. Need review
(NEXT/FEXT check) if via placement is
not Y-pattern. See Figure 7-11

GND via
Place GND via as symmetrically as possible
to data pair vias. Up to four signal vias (2 diff
pairs) can share a single GND return via
GND via is used to maintain return
path, while its Xtalk suppression is
limited
Max # of vias

Not limited if total channel loss meets IL
spec.
Max via stub length 0.4 mm
long via stub requires review (IL and
resonance dip check)
Topology
The main route via dimensions should comply with the via structure rules (See via section) See Figure 7-8
For the connector pin vias, follow the rules for the connector pin vias (See via section)
